For Authors

All conference submissions will be double-blind and
peer-to-peer reviewed.

Reviewing for the Conf-IRM is blind to the identities
of the authors. The first page, on which the paper body
begins, should include the title, abstract, content
areas, and ID number (if available), but not the
acknowledgments and names or affiliations of the
authors. The references should include all published
literature relevant to the paper, including previous
works of the authors, but should not include unpublished
works.

When referring to one's own work, use the third
person, rather than the first person. For example, say
"Previously, Newell (1996) has shown that...," rather
than "In our previous work (Newell 1996) we have shown
that...." Try to avoid including any information in the
body of the paper or references that would identify the
authors or their institutions. Such information may be
added to the final camera-ready version for publication.
